1554. Chapter 1554 The villain is causing trouble nine
When he opened the memorial and took a look, Li Kafa's face suddenly darkened. Guan Yi's situation was expected by him, but what happened to Ma Xiaoyao was a bit unexpected. Although he didn't have much contact with the emperor, he could tell that the emperor was
For a very suspicious person, Ma Xiaoyao might have deceived him. According to common sense, the emperor should investigate the matter thoroughly? How could he not intervene? Could it be that... the emperor just believes in Ma Xiaoyao?
Li Kafa found that he seemed to be muttering about Ma Xiaoyao's status in the emperor's heart.
The trap I worked so hard to design turned out to be in vain, and nothing happened. How depressing!
The emperor had given instructions, and Li Kafa had no choice but to obey. After handing the memorial to Ma Xiaoyao, he led his men to leave Baihu City.
"The broom star Li Kaifa is finally gone!"
"I'm treating you tonight, let's all have fun together!"
"Okay, I won't come home until I get drunk tonight!"
"It's best to call General Shang Ma..."
"If I go and shout, General Ma will definitely give us face."
…
Tian Zhengang and others talked with laughter on their faces. Li Fafa's living in Baihu City put too much pressure on them. Now that Li Fafa is gone, they can finally enjoy life without any scruples.
That night, in the best restaurant in Baihu City, Ma Xiaoyao and ten thousand captains sat together, eating meat, drinking from large bowls, and talking loudly. The atmosphere was very high.
After the banquet, Ma Xiaoyao got drunk again. No, to be precise, he was drunk. Although he had a good drinking capacity, he couldn't stand ten thousand captains taking turns to get him drunk. It was already very difficult for him to last until the banquet was over.
.
After Ouyang Lie sent Ma Xiaoyao back to the General Military Mansion, he called his daughter Ouyang Zilan over and left after a few words of instruction.
In the evening, Ouyang Zilan stayed in Ma Xiaoyao's room. There is no need to elaborate on the turmoil of the night. Anyway, Ma Xiaoyao felt extremely comfortable at night.
Things should have calmed down at this point, but... just after two peaceful days, the storm arose again, and it was still a huge storm.
The origin of this turmoil is the Imperial City.
That morning, Jin Tianwei held a court meeting in Taiji Hall. It went smoothly at first, but later there were some twists and turns.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report." Prince Long, who was standing at the front, suddenly said.
"What's the matter?" Jin Tianwei asked expressionlessly.
"The old minister is suing Marquis Xuanwu for bending the law for personal gain and protecting his father-in-law. The nature is really bad." Prince Long's voice was very heavy.
Marquis Xuanwu was standing aside taking a nap when he suddenly heard Prince Long suing him. Marquis Xuanwu immediately became anxious: "Prince Long, please don't slander me..."
Jin Tianwei glanced at Marquis Xuanwu. Marquis Xuanwu immediately shut up and did not dare to speak anymore, but he still glared at Prince Long. If looks could kill, Prince Long would have been killed hundreds of times by people who like me. Jin Tianwei looked at it indifferently.
He looked at Prince Long and said slowly: "Prince Long, you are suing Marquis Xuanwu, do you have any evidence in your hand?"
"Old minister, of course I have evidence." Prince Long came prepared today and was not afraid of Jin Tianwei's questioning at all. He turned to look at Feng Shugen, the Secretary of the Ministry of Justice diagonally opposite: "Master Feng, please explain the situation to the emperor."
Feng Shugen's face suddenly twitched, and a trace of unwillingness flashed in his eyes.
"Whoosh!"
Everyone's eyes were turned to Feng Shugen. Several acquaintances secretly asked Feng Shugen what was going on, but they didn't get any response. At this moment, Feng Shugen seemed to be petrified, standing still and motionless.
Marquis Xuanwu was a little anxious. He kept winking at Feng Shugen, but Feng Shugen ignored him and made Marquis Xuanwu scratch his ears and cheeks anxiously.
"Master Feng, there are some things that cannot be concealed. If you take the initiative to confess now, you can still get a lighter punishment. If the emperor finds out, hehe... then your end will be miserable." Prince Long sneered.
"Alas..." Feng Shugen sighed helplessly, then stepped forward, lifted up his skirt and knelt in the main hall: "I am guilty! Please punish me!"
Jin Tianwei's eyes flashed: "What is your crime? Tell me carefully!"
"A few days ago, Marquis Xuanwu came to me and asked me to help save his father-in-law, Guan Yi, the commander of the Baihu Banner camp. I didn't agree at first, but Marquis Xuanwu kept pestering me, not only promising me many benefits, but also promising me many benefits.
In the end, they brought out Concubine Hua to threaten me... In the end, I had no choice but to agree..." Feng Shugen said slowly.
"Feng Shugen, don't slander me! When did I ask for your help?" Xuanwu Hou jumped to his feet and yelled.
"I have a written note left by Marquis Xuanwu here." Feng Shugen took out a piece of paper from his arms: "I was worried that Marquis Xuanwu would cross the river and burn the bridge afterwards, so I asked him to write a written note with his autograph and handprint on it.
…”
"You old fool!" Marquis Xuanwu's eyes suddenly turned red, and he rushed forward to snatch the documents.
"Bang!"
Prince Long dodged and stood in front of Feng Shugen. Marquis Xuanwu bumped into Prince Long. A huge force came and Marquis Xuanwu was thrown away.
"Prince Long, how have I offended you? You want to harm me like this!" Xuanwuhou got up from the ground, pointed at Prince Long and cursed loudly. At this moment, Xuanwuhou's hair was disheveled, his clothes were dirty, he was jumping around and cursing, and he looked like
Like a madman.
"Shut up!" Jin Tianwei slapped the table hard, and Marquis Xuanwu immediately shut his mouth. Jin Tianwei glared at Marquis Xuanwu, then turned to look at Feng Shugen: "Send the receipt."
Immediately, a guard came forward to take the receipt, then turned around and handed it to Jin Tianwei.
Jin Tianwei glanced at the written document, and his face suddenly darkened. He could see at a glance that the written document was genuine, and the signature on it was indeed the handwriting of Marquis Xuanwu. Jin Tianwei felt so disgusted that his brother-in-law was so unsatisfactory. It would be shameful to do this.
It is simply extremely stupid to still leave clues about human affairs.
"Your Majesty, Marquis Xuanwu not only asked me to help Guan Yi get rid of his crimes, but also took the initiative to help Guan Yi repay the military expenses of millions of taels." Feng Shugen continued.
"Wow!"
Following Feng Shugen's words, there was an uproar in the hall.
"What? Helped people repay millions of taels of military expenses? Marquis Xuanwu is really rich!"
"As far as I know, Marquis Xuanwu's annual salary is only a few thousand taels. Even if he earns a lifetime, it is impossible for him to save millions of taels of silver. How did he get this money?"
"Check! We must investigate thoroughly!"
"Do you still need to check? Xuanwu Hou must have used some illegal means to obtain wealth, so he is so rich."
"Go to his house and search it to see how much money he has."
"It's really disappointing. I originally thought that Marquis Xuanwu was an upright and selfless man, but I didn't know he was actually pretending."
"This Feng Shugen is also very strange. Why did he take the initiative to admit his crime? Is he crazy?"
"Marquis Xuanwu will be in bad luck this time."
"You can't do bad things and leave a note behind them. Ordinary people can't do that. You're such a great person."
…
There was a lot of discussion in the hall.
"Shut up!" Jin Tianwei shouted softly, and the hall suddenly became quiet. Everyone looked at Jin Tianwei, waiting for Jin Tianwei's opinion on how to deal with it. They wanted to see today whether Jin Tianwei wanted to exterminate the family out of justice, or not.
Being selfless, Prince Long and others have already made preparations. If Jin Tianwei dares to protect Marquis Xuanwu, they will attack him in groups and make Jin Tianwei lose face.
The hall suddenly became extremely quiet. If someone threw a needle on the ground, everyone would probably hear it.
After a long time...
Jin Tianwei spoke slowly: "Take down Marquis Xuanwu and put him in a prison. We will make a judgment after the matter is investigated clearly."
"Crash!"
Several guards rushed forward and captured Xuanwu Hou directly.
"Your Majesty, I have been wronged... Your Majesty... I have been wronged..." Hou Xuanwu wailed at the top of his lungs, but Jin Tianwei ignored him, and neither did anyone else, and just like that, Marquis Xuanwu was escorted out.
.
"Your Majesty is wise!" Prince Long saluted with his hands raised.
"Your Majesty is wise!" Others also saluted and praised.
What a wise man! Jin Tianwei almost cursed. Although he looked calm on the surface, in fact, his anger was already rising inside. Even if he was blind, he could see that this incident was a trap, a trap aimed at Xuanwu Hou, and the designer.
It must be the old guys like Long Prince. Although Jin Tianwei was angry, Jin Tianwei had to admit that the methods of Long Prince and others were very vicious and clever, and they caught him off guard.
In the final analysis, Marquis Xuanwu was too unsatisfactory. If Marquis Xuanwu was smarter, he would not have fallen into the trap. Marquis Xuanwu's stupidity not only harmed himself, but also caused Jin Tianwei to lose face.
The evidence was conclusive. In full view of the public, Jin Tianwei couldn't protect Marquis Xuanwu even if he wanted to, so he simply cut the knot quickly and arrested Marquis Xuanwu.
"Come here, arrest Feng Shugen and put him in the sky prison. We will punish him after the matter is found out." Jin Tianwei glanced coldly at Feng Shugen who was kneeling in the hall. It was this glance that made Feng Shugen shudder and his face suddenly changed.
He was extremely pale, and he knew that he had offended Jin Tianwei severely. With Jin Tianwei's temper, it was absolutely impossible to let him go. Although Feng Shugen was scared, he didn't say much. He was pinched and couldn't resist at all.
Soon, Feng Shugen was escorted down by the guards.
"Do you have anything else to do?" Jin Tianwei glanced at the people on both sides of the hall. When he saw that no one spoke, Jin Tianwei announced that the court was dismissed, then stood up and strode away.
"Prince Dragon, come to my place for a drink at noon." Prince Tiger extended the invitation.
"Okay, I just have something to discuss with you." Prince Long agreed happily.
The two walked out of the Tai Chi Hall side by side while chatting. When no one was around, Prince Tiger lowered his voice and said, "Jin Tianwei is really ruthless. He can even kill his own brother-in-law. He is definitely a ruthless person."
